you feel anything in the steering? i would have said bearings but they dont just tend to pop up like you say

your right. 60-70, do you hear it at lower speeds or just the higher speeds. the reason i ask is if something (arch wise) has maby come loose or something just stuk, i just find it strange if it is bearings because of the time that it has taken to apear.

ps mine had a feeling of unsturdyness, just had wishbone bushes done and is all good now :)

best of luck with that, in a way i hope it is the bearings, saves you wondering and putting up with it. yea cupra r 225, and your right they are different, the whole lower arm assembly is different, the drop links screw into the wishbone by the look of it but mine are seperate, and the ball joints are different and go off at a slightly different angle. it surprised me when i tryed fitting a cupra arm to a mates cupra r ( under his instruction)

this sounds like what I have, do you feel a sort of grinding through the floor as well especially when you very slightly turn?

Ok well let me know how it goes mate, I have had two garages tell me my bearings are fine (but think this was just doing the old 'wheel wobble' check which, like you said, I've heard isnt always reliable) so might look at getting mine done if it fixes it for you!
